If it will be stored outside, I would find a spot close enough to a 120 volt outlet to power a battery charger and an air compressor. If possible, find a spot that does not fill with wind blown snow. A wind and weather proof can or bucket over the exhaust will be a necessity. Some people put a five gallon bucket over the gear shift to reduce the amount of water getting into the transmission. Some ignitions are sensitive to moisture, a plastic bag over the distributor or magneto can help. A wet seat pan is not pleasant, flip the seat up to reduce that. A tarp over the seat, steering wheel and platform would be my choice in winter, even better if it can cover the rear tires to protect them from the sun.
An operators manual will have a lot of great information for any first time owner. The guys on the YT IH forum may be able to help you with more specific recommendations for an H. An H should start in almost any Pennsylvania weather, but if it has been converted from 6 volts to 12 volts you will be able to easily jump start it from another vehicle and also swap batteries with another vehicle (new battery for mom's car, old battery for H).
If you won't need it in winter, I would not be in a big hurry to buy one yet.
